Professional Information:
The Passion of the Christ information:
- My thoughts on Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ
- One of Mel Gibson's main sources, Anne Catherine Emmerich's The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ is available online as well as in adobe .pdf format. While I do not recommend it as reading for good theology, it is interesting (at least to me) as primary source material for research into the film.
- What's up with the ugly baby? Mel Gibson's answer
My writing and resources:
- My thoughts on Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ
-
AAR/ETS 2003 Paper: The Buswell-Chafer Controversy Circa 1937-38: An Unusually
Civil War of Words? (AAREATS03.pdf)

The Email:
Three Strands Relevant: Oh Be Careful Little Mouth What You Say
- Knowing What to Say Without Saying the Wrong Thing (Word .doc file)
- The Email: Three Strands Relevant: The Mysterious Working of a Mysterious God I did not intend for this to be anything beyond a devotional for the Sunday School Class (so there are lots of spelling errors, grammar errors, etc.... afterall, its the postmodern thing to be unpolished), 3 Strands Woven, that I teach at The Heights Church in Richardson, TX. However, this email has received broad circulation, including airplay with an interview on the Johanna Fisher Radio Program on KCBI. I have reproduced it here in its entirety due to many requests. In all this, let's remember to keep the focus on the families and friends of those who are grieving. Unfortunately, Metro Church has ceased to exist.
